A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE MR. AND MRS. HOYT GRAHAM OF BEAUFORT ON THE OCCASION OF THEIR SEVENTIETH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY AND TO EXTEND BEST WISHES FOR MANY BLESSINGS AND FULFILLMENT IN THE DAYS TO COME.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that Hoyt and Imogene Graham of Beaufort will celebrate their seventieth wedding anniversary on June 15, 2014; and

Whereas, in June 1944, when roses and daylilies were lifting their happy, colorful blooms aloft, Hoyt and Imogene pledged to one another a lifetime of love and sharing as they were joined in holy wedlock in Greenville; and

Whereas, having been united in marriage, the couple found joy in the two children God gave them, Sandra Graham Somerall (Rick) and Timothy Winston Graham (Susan), who have blessed their parents with four grandchildren, Sara Hellen Somerall, Graham Emerson Somerall (Erin), Trent Winston Graham (Kara), and Matthew Edward Graham, as well as three great-grandchildren, Tanner Graham, Brenton Graham, and Charles Emerson Somerall; and

Whereas, few successes on earth crown a life as does a marriage that endures the test of time, growing stronger with each passing year; and

Whereas, through the years, Hoyt Graham, a retired Methodist minister, has learned the veracity of Proverbs 18:22, "Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD," and he now considers one of his greatest achievements as having had the good sense to marry his beloved Imogene; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciate the example of love and faithfulness Hoyt and Imogene Graham have set for seven decades in their enduring marriage. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt Graham of Beaufort on the occasion of their seventieth wedding anniversary and extend best wishes for many blessings and fulfillment in the days to come.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt Graham.
